mackey,s Losing Ventures.

column article, which purports to give the
inside history Of the California wheat deal.
It says the deal was arranged by Mackay
and Flood of the Nevada Bank, to recu-
perate themselves for heavy losses sus.

withdrew from the firm two or three years
ago. In connection with the wheat deal,
IL was arranged to start a boom in mining
stocks, but that idea was abandoned after
the collapse in the Chicago wheat market,
in which the Nevada Bank was interested.
The Tribune article, which was proba-
bly, written in the interest Of Jay Gould
or D. o. Mills, says Mackay was at no
| time worth over SIS, DOC, 900, and that he
| had lost over half of that amount in cable
and telegrsphio speculations and unre-

cost him and Flood from $4,000, 900 to

A STORY OF BISHOP SIMPSON,

An incident showing his gifts is related
by his uncle. Late one Saturday night
he arrived at a town in the mountainous
regions of Pennsylvania, where he was a
total stranger. The next morning he
made his way to the Methodist Church,
and accosted the pastor, telling him he
was a brother in the ministry. Simpson
being extremely awkward and plain in
appearance, the pastor was half inclined
to omit the courtesy due a brother
preacher of asking him to deliver a ser.
mon. If he inquired of the Bishop of
his home he must have failed to catch
it, for he certainly had no idea to whom
he was speaking. His request for the
stranger to preach was therefore ex-
pressed in the most formal and con.
strained manner The stranger readily
agreed to fill the pulpit, and the pastors
chagrin was evident, as he resigned him.
self to his fate. The Bishop preached
n of his powerful sermons, and every.
body in the audience whispered to his
neighbor, "Who is he?" Before he had
taken his seat, the pastor had him by
the hand. "What did you say your
name vast" "Simpson." "What !
Not the Bishop" "That is what they
call me-" The minister instantly sprang
to his feet and shouted: "You have Just
had the privilege of listening to Bishop
Simpson. Let US sing Praise God from
whom all blessings flow"
